The hostel was clean and the hosts at the entrance were very nice, spoke good English, and helped with advice on getting around town. The private room is pretty small, but enough space for light travelers. The shared bathrooms were clean and there was never a problem with availability due to other guests using them.
The location is great: 10 minutes walking from Hua Lamphong Railway Station; 5 minutes walking from the great street vendors of Yaowarat Road; 5 minutes walking to the Marine Department (for boat ferries up and down river); and right in the Talad Noi neighborhood of Chinatown with its own street vendors and culture.
